Skimming over the banks of the stream, Shade heard the beetle warming up its wings. Shade is a young Silverwing bat and the runt of his colony, but he is determined to prove his worth during the grueling winter migration. When a fierce storm separates him from his flock, Shade begins an epic journey to find his family. Along the way, he encounters a cast of mysterious characters, including the banded bat Marina, the mystical Zephyr, and the dangerous vampire bat Goth. Shade must quickly learn who to trust if he hopes to survive. Written by Kenneth Oppel, who published his first book at eighteen, this thrilling first volume of the *Silverwing* trilogy captures the dangerous nocturnal world of bats and has become a celebrated classic of adventure and suspense for young readers.
